The food was absolutely insane- the beef shin ragù is genuinely one of the best I have ever had. The duck breast was also amazing. The service was outstanding, some of the best I’ve experienced in the UK. The whole team was quick, attentive, always checking back and giving recommendations.

Hand made pasta, flavour was spot on, portions are a bit small though but we enjoyed everything and had a good time, nothing to complain about!
